Recipe: Smash Burger Tacos

Ready to take your taco game to the next level? You've got to try our irresistible Smash Burger Tacos. Everything you love about a smash burger nestled in a warm flour tortilla - prepare to fall in love.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb ground beef (80/20 recommended) (Passanante product #111144)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 8 small corn tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your favorite melting cheese)
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup diced onions
  • Pickles, optional, for topping
  • Ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise, optional, for topping

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Beef Patties: Divide the ground beef into 8 equal portions and shape them into small meatballs. Preheat a cast-iron skillet or griddle over high heat. Once hot, place a meatball on the skillet and immediately press it down firmly with a spatula to flatten it into a thin patty. Season the patty with salt and pepper. Repeat with the remaining meatballs, leaving space between each patty to ensure they cook evenly.
  2. Cook the Patties: Cook the patties for 2-3 minutes on one side until a crispy crust forms. Flip the patties and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the desired level of doneness is reached. As the patties cook, use the spatula to smash them down further for maximum crispiness.
  3. Warm the Tortillas: While the patties are cooking, warm the corn tortillas on a separate skillet or griddle until they are soft and pliable. Keep them warm in a clean kitchen towel or tortilla warmer.
  4. Assemble the Tacos: Once the patties are cooked, place each one on a warm corn tortilla. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the hot patties to allow it to melt slightly. Top each taco with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, diced onions, and any additional toppings of your choice, such as pickles or condiments.
  5. Serve: Serve the smash burger tacos immediately while the patties are still hot and the cheese is melty. Enjoy the combination of crispy beef patties, gooey cheese, and fresh toppings wrapped in warm corn tortillas for a delicious twist on classic smash burgers!
  6. Optional: Customize your smash burger tacos with your favorite toppings and condiments, such as ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, or hot sauce, to suit your taste preferences. Serve alongside fries or a side salad for a complete meal.
